In New X-Men 118, I wasn’t looking for, never noticed any of these, until the details were pointed out online later…

CGC notes on this issue say "Minor Costume Change", but what was it? I've not been able to tell what got changed and had no idea about it until I saw it noted on the CGC label. (Image not mine).

I'm guessing when the mask turned to solid gold, that was a minor costume change. lol

Some of those are a bit of a reach but others are blatantly obvious.  Still, wow.

A Wolverine 8 was recently posted on PGM and I got to looking at Liefeld's back cover art.

Were Wolverine to retract his claws they'd be sheathed from his wrist to mid bicep. He'd have to walk around stiff-armed.

C3PO would have better dexterity.

The only thing I can see that changed is that the green came down over the top of the shoulders more and formed a point just over the deltoid muscle, but it seems like it took a few more issues for that look to become the norm. Regardless, I never really noticed the change or tried to make the comparison until recently.

That Danny Bulandi's name is in fact Bulanadi. And I found that out today having read it as Bulandi for, oh so many years!!!

A less common surname than John Byrne's, which I heard mispronounced many times down the years as John Brine.

Right? It's Byrne - "By" and rhymes with "irony." Bi-roni. 

Right?
